well, from what I've seen . . .
people tend to follow aq person who exudes aggressiveness (not strength) -- Like Reagan, Limbaugh -- but that's our ape ancestry for you -- following the dominant (appearing) male who will fight violently for the tribe. Anthropologists have observed chimpanzees for decades now and discovered just such a socity, so similar to that of humans.
It's not dumbness -- it's just unthinkingly following basic animal instinct.
And he's also right about Democrats -- they don't take much of a stand -- and that's what bothers me about them. They are just a hair better than Republicans -- but better -- that's the operative word. A little better is better than no better at all. Anything but the Republicans.
